"For much of American history, the federal government has played a limited role in local police regulation. That all changed in 1994, when Congress passed a little known statute that permitted the US Attorney General to reform troubled police department. Since then, many of the nation's largest police departments - including those in Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, Washington, DC, Seattle, New Orleans, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Albuquerque - have been subject to federal oversight. But until recently, we've known little about how this federal process works. Drawing on original interviews, court documents, statistical data, and media reports, this book provides the first comprehensive account of federal intervention in American police departments. It shows that, under the right circumstances, federal intervention is uniquely effective at combating misconduct in police departments. However, federal intervention is far from perfect. This book concludes by arguing that Congress should expand and improve federal oversight of policing"--

"Almost 90 percent of the police departments in the United States employ 25 officers or fewer. Many agencies are staffed by fewer than ten peacekeepers. The leaders of these small departments face some of the same challenges as do the bosses of larger departments, but they encounter many additional problems, as well, and they labor in a somewhat different environment. Much has been written to assist the CEO of the larger department. Much less effort has been devoted to aiding the smaller agency chief in navigating the operational, personnel, and political landscape to be found in the smaller community, to name but one of the challenges. This book is intended to fill that knowledge gap. The author is a 52-year veteran of law enforcement who has served as a successful police chief in cities of 8,000, 23,000, and over 100,000 citizens. The book is a compilation of real-world experience and lessons learned, bolstered by the observations of many other police chiefs. Its goal is to assist the small agency chief in building and maintaining an exceptional police department. It is additionally designed to assist the leader in enjoying a successful and rewarding career for as long as he or she chooses to be employed there. This is not a book about leadership or management theory. Rather, it is a handbook focused upon providing practical, time-proven advice for handling the small department chief's daily fare of challenges and opportunities. It will prove equally useful to the leader of a larger police department, but the focus will remain on the small agency boss"--
